AQAP terrorists showed how to derail trains carrying hazardous chemicals in America in Inspire magazine issue, now gone operational

AQAP terrorists showed how to derail trains carrying hazardous chemicals in America in a prior Inspire magazine issue, now they have gone operational. The terrorist publication, considered a handbook for many radicals who actually carry out attacks, lists dozens of 'vulnerable' train routes in the U.S. as potential targets. "TSA is aware of the recent Al-Qaeda threat to rail systems, and issued a message to our transportation partners," said agency spokesperson Michael McCarthy. "There are no coincidences in terrorism"!

1). NYP April 15th, 2023 Train carrying hazardous materials derails in rural Maine. A train has reportedly derailed in the state of Maine and officials say they believe hazardous materials were on board. “Train derailment with fire north of rockwood, hazzard materials please stay clear!” The Rockwood, Maine Fire & Rescue posted on Facebook Saturday. The Fire & Rescue team posted a photo of the incident that shows a derailed train and a fire burning in a snow covered forest area.

2). March 27, 2023, WYNDMERE, N.D. (AP) — A Canadian Pacific train derailed in rural North Dakota Sunday night and spilled hazardous materials. But local authorities and the railroad said there is no threat to public safety. There were no injuries and no fire associated with the derailment, which occurred in a rural area outside Wyndmere, a town of several hundred people about 60 miles (97 kilometers) southwest of Fargo. Canadian Pacific spokesperson Andy Cummings said 31 of the 70 cars on the train left the tracks around 11:15 p.m. Sunday, and some of the cars leaked liquid asphalt. But there are no waterways near where the derailment happened.

3). February 3, 2023, a Norfolk Southern freight train derailed in East Palestine, Ohio, about a quarter-mile west of the Ohio-Pennsylvania state line. Twenty of the affected cars contained hazardous materials, including vinyl chloride, ethylene glycol, ethylhexyl acrylate, butyl acrylate and isobutylene. The train, operated by Norfolk Southern, had been carrying chemicals and combustible materials, with vinyl chloride, a toxic flammable gas, being of most concern to investigators. Residents on both sides of the Ohio-Pennsylvania border were ordered to evacuate, as Gov. Mike DeWine of Ohio raised alarms about a possible explosion. On Feb. 6, the authorities released the toxic materials from five tankers, and the contents were diverted to a trench and burned off.

4). November 2nd, 2022, A Canadian National freight train that derailed in St. James Parish and spilled hazardous hydrochloric acid had many other toxic, carcinogenic, corrosive and highly flammable chemicals in tow, state investigative reports show. The hydrochloric acid leak from one derailed tank car on the afternoon of Nov. 2 forced the evacuation of 500 people in the Mississippi River community of Paulina for about a day's time. But, with 76 loaded cars carrying 10,451 tons of product, the train had plenty of other chemicals that, had they leaked too, could have made things much worse, a newly public tally of the train's contents show. Highly flammable liquids like formaldehyde solution, dicyclopentadiene and choline hydroxide; highly toxic or caustic chemicals like chloroform, chlorine and toluene diisocyanate; and the flammable and potent carcinogen ethylene oxide were all in the train's tank cars.

On August 13th, 2017 Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula released the 17th issue of Inspire magazine featuring instructions from the “AQ-Chef,” including “a simple method for targeting trains…[involving] derailing a train from the railroad by placing an object on the tracks.” The magazine supplements the instructions with a list of priority targets, ranking “Jewish interests everywhere” first. While this is not the first time al-Qaeda has targeted trains, this issue of the magazine offers a new, low-tech strategy and step-by-step instructions for building a “derail tool” that doesn’t require advanced bomb-making skills. We’ve seen these plans in action before.

The 2004 Madrid train bombings and 2009 New York subway train plots were higher-level, coordinated Al-Qaeda attacks. In Madrid, the bombing caused significant damage, killed 192 people and injured more than 2,000. Inspire speculates that accurately targeting high-speed trains near mountains, buildings, bridges or tunnels could “cause devastating damage when the train derails from the track.” The magazine is telling its readers: It’s no longer necessary to use bombing tactics to achieve a mass-casualty event; with these new instructions, a single person using simple, hard-to-detect materials can achieve the same level of destruction.

On June 29, 2021, Al-Malahem, the media arm of the Yemen-based Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), released the first issue of its Inspire magazine since 2017. This issue of the magazine, titled "Praise and Guidance". The terror group has apparently released the edition to mark the anniversary of the September 11 attacks it orchestrated in 2001. In the issue, AQAP stressed that waging jihad against the U.S. is a religious duty incumbent upon all Muslims "with strength and ability, until the U.S. stops its oppression against Muslims, stop supporting the occupier Jews who are oppressing our brothers in Palestine, and stop all its intervention in Muslim countries." There have not been any public marching orders for lone-wolf jihadists since 2017. Until now. "We'll see".
